Stay with Me

Would you stay with me, Darling?
'Cause it's not too far away
I never meant to take this long just to figure out...!

Yo... Yo, Back like I never left
Guess being away for that minute gives me diminished rep
If the odds are stacked against me I'm still winning bets
Man I feel like David, Goliath ain't never been a threat! ...Nah!
Shallow talk! ...But me; I give 'em depth
My forefathers in essence kicking it in the flesh
What's a King amongst hooded figures in silhouettes?
I play the sound of our struggles... they're deliberately deaf;
Hear me now; I'm still the child with the crooked smile
That African made bredah; raised in the British Isles
If on your travels you found that Hip-Hop has lost its sound
Man I got no doubt they can point me out when I'm in a crowd!
...Man I've never been much one for discussions
And I ain't talking narcotics; they're abusing my substance
But the Lord above's who I put my trust in
Not gonna stop 'til there's least a legacy for my offspring!
...A change gon' come!

Would you stay with me, Darling?
'Cause it's not too far away... No, No!
It ain't meant to take this long...
But would you stay with me, Darling?
Cause its not too far away
I never meant to take this long just to figure out...!

Yo... you have confidence in me sharing my inhibitions;
'Cause I don't sacrifice my love amongst other commitments
Ambitions aside; beyond the intermission
Know that I've come a long way fam; I've covered some distance;
Used to say I was ill back when no one would listen
Beats were prescription pills for the living conditions
Hoping the sentences over record collections
Help us travel to different worlds as in separate dimensions!
It seems like... Just to get some progression I need the green light
But me I'm counting my blessings... more or less
As the world keeps on turning girl, the fire burns like a furnace
I've never been more determined
And I need-to-know... Girl would you stay with me?
If life ain't picture perfect can we paint a scene?
Yeah... I was chasing the make believe
And all these years you're the very air that I breathe!
Yeah... if only 'cause of you I've been to places
It's fair to say you've always been my biggest inspiration!
...And I love you... for what it's worth!

Would you stay with me, Darling?
It ain't too far away, No, No!
I never meant to take this long
But would you stay with me, Darling?
It ain't too far away... Oh no, no, no, no!
Ohhhhh... woah!
Stay with me Babe!
Don't leave... just stay right here baby!
(I didn't know... yeah... yo take it away bruh!)
Stay!
(Can't say I didn't love you man!)
